The Effect of Treatment With Teriparatide and Zoledronic Acid in Patients With Osteogenesis Imperfecta

June 22, 2021 updated by: University of Aarhus

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is an inherited disease of the connective tissue. Symptoms are fractures, growth retardation, blue sclera, bad teeth, impaired hearing a.o. The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of treatment of adult OI patients with bisphosphonate (zoledronic acid), parathyroid hormone (PTH) or placebo on bone mass, fracture risk and quality of life.

The investigators will therefore conduct a double blind, placebo controlled trial, taking genotype and previous antiresorptive therapy into account.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Bone Mineral Density (BMD)
Time Frame: Three years
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans are performed at the lumbar spine, hip and whole body twice yearly. The value of the lumbar BMD is the primary outcome.
Three years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Fracture risk
Time Frame: Three years
Participants are asked to report fractures throughout the study. Medical examination yearly with a focus on possible new fractures. Columnar x-ray before and after the study investigate new fractures.
Three years
